Deathstroke the Terminator src

Grant Wilson was the first Ravager, the son of Deathstroke.

Grant Slade Wilson grew up idolizing Deathstroke (Slade Wilson), although he was unaware that the mercenary was his father, because his parents had been separated. Grant attended military school and later moved to NYC, at which point he began falling in with members of H.I.V.E. His new friends and his constant infidelity threatened his relationship with girlfriend Carol Sladky.[citation needed]

The final straw came when Starfire crashed into his apartment, and his living space was destroyed by Gordanians who were hunting the alien princess. The New Teen Titans fended off the Gordanians, but Grant blamed them for both destroying his apartment and convincing Carol to leave him.[citation needed]

In a bid for revenge he allowed H.I.V.E. scientists to give him powers that were identical to those of Deathstroke. Now known as Ravager he promised to assassinate the Titans. Deathstroke warned his son that his powers were unstable and slowly killing him, but Ravager refused to listen. Ravager burned himself out fighting the Titans, dying in his fathers' arms, and Deathstroke swore revenge.[citation needed]

Brother Blood revived a zombified version of Grant to guard Kid Eternity while enacting a plot against the Teen Titans. Beast Boy and Raven free Kid Eternity from his bonds, and Kit uses his powers to send the deceased back to the land of the dead, including Grant.[1]
